is Michigan the next domino?

John —   Now that we are just a few crucial states away from ENDING the Electoral College, Pro-Popular Vote state legislators are working harder than ever before to enact the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact, once and for all. And they've just gotten an important boost in Michigan! Michig…

A National Security threat?

John — We're going to keep this simple and straightforward:   The Electoral College is the primary tool Republicans use to swing national elections and suppress the will of the people. That's why Donald Trump's latest indictment for attempting to subvert the 2020 election is so troubling.  Not be…

the Electoral College is a danger

John, we're going to keep this short and sweet. The Electoral College is a danger to our nation.   It disenfranchises millions of voters in every Presidential Election — and it suppresses voter turnout by up to 16% in non-Battleground ground states.   It's routinely abused by Republicans looking …
